1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Mystic Kids 1/6 discussion

Nov 3, 2013

    1. I've been interested in buying Christina for awhile now, but that pawprint on her cheek bothers me (I'm in love with the rest of her face-up)...Does anyone know if it can be removed by sanding or has anyone even attempted to do something like this o_o?
       
    2. I believe it is just the face up, many people didn't like Lillian's (?) mole so they request a face up without it.
      I'm pretty sure you can ask for the same with Christina, im sure some one has done it before!
      It never hurts to ask! :D
       
    3. Hey, just stumbled across this after not finding any info about these dolls anywhere else! Can anyone tell me how well these dolls pose? I guess specifically Verdin, since I'm looking at her :)
       
    4. I had a Verdin for a while, and she was alright at posing! Her balance was great, and I loved her legs and torso (though I eventually put her on Peapod hooves, which I also LOVED). The only thing I wasn't a fan of was her wrist/hand posability. I think it's because MK's hands are mitten-like and not very graceful or versatile, IMHO. Overall that's a very small problem. I'm sure you could give them other YoSD-sized hands if it really bugs you!

    5. Ok thanks! :) If I decide on getting her, hands aren't necessarily a deal-breaker for me, but I guess I'll shop around a bit and consider my options!
       
    6. I like that they can free stand barefoot. But I did have some difficulty getting Lizzy to wrap her hands around into a cuddle of her stuffed sheep.

    7. Oh my gosh she is adorable!! And I actually quite like her "cuddling" pose in your picture. Very cute!
       
    8. Thanks! It illustrates the mitten-like hands sidroq mentioned.
       
    9. Mega, mega cute!

      Yup, but they totally work for some poses, as demonstrated above. :) Just might be nice to have an alternate pair too.

    10. I can stand up Cris and just leave him like that for hours without any worries, especially on bare feet!
      A bit of hot glue in the wrists and that helps make them pose more even if it's only a little bit, beats "Straight out 90% of the time" poses that he used to do, they actually stay bent now.

      This is from right around when I got him last November, but for the most part
      I believe it has elbows, thigh, knee, and wrists bent as far as they would go, also while balancing on one foot like a boss.
      I did edit his boy bits on these reference photos as to not weird out my friends. xD

      //Silly excuse to show photo//

      I took a few photos for someone who was interested in a 1/6 Mystic Kids so I bent all of his joints as far as they could go to show what it could do.
      Have a few links!
      As far back as the body and legs can arc
      As far forward as the body and legs can arc
      Sometimes it's annoying to make him hold stuff?

      So I guess, for the most part, all of the posing is in their limbs? O vO
      I just really like Mystic Kids, they feel so sturdy to me.
       
    11. WOW thanks so much! He's very cute and really not a bad poser at all! I think I've been convinced to order Verdin in a couple weeks after I get paid :) very excited!!
       
    12. Yaaay :D
      I almost got Verdin myself, but really liked the face of Cris over time. If you want me to try any poses or anything I'd be happy to help, if you have any second thoughts. I mean, I have one so I may as well help you decide if you wanted. XD

      Some proper Cris spam.
       
    13. Seriously can't get over how adorable he is haha :whee: If I was looking for a boy doll, he would definitely be a top pick! It's too bad I can only ever successfully sew girl clothes :sweat If it isn't too much trouble, could you tell me about his sitting poses? On the site, it shows them sitting with their knees pointed inwards and their feet pointed out and I think that's a really cute pose. Can these bodies really do that? Sorry I'm a bit skeptical, I've never had anything other than a single-jointed doll!
       
    14. I tried as many as I could think. xD
      there's only two I know they can't do which is to hug the knees and to where you sit on the shin, I don't know what you would call that position haha.
      Sorry for such poor photos.
      I think the one on the far left is what was shown yeah?

    17. ksenon68 Ahh your Julien looks great :D
      For anyone interested I posted a Soom/Mystic Kids comparison thread. I think someone mentioned wanting a comparison for soom and mk colors at some point.
       
    18. ksenon68 Your Julien looks a lot cuter than the promo photos for him.
       
    19. I kind of wish I bought my verdin 12mm eyes right now... ; A; *finds a picture*
